Our team reviews every nomination together. We look for nominees with a clear mission, a meaningful use case for Vestaboard, and a story we feel will resonate with our broader community. Strong nominations tell us not just what the nominee does, but how a Vestaboard would specifically help them do it.
We run two rounds per year, in the spring and the fall. Nomination windows open ahead of each round, and recipients are announced at the start of the season.
Each recipient receives a Vestaboard at no cost. We work with them on installation guidance, account setup, and any questions about how to get the most out of the display.
Yes. Self-nominations are welcome, especially from organizations and individuals who feel a Vestaboard would genuinely amplify their mission.
There's no obligation tied to receiving a Vestaboard, although we love working with participants to amplify their stories.
